Rolls Royce announces SUV plan

Rolls-Royce on Wednesday unveiled plans to launch its own sports utility vehicle, mirroring recent moves by Bentley and Jaguar.

The British brand revealed in an open letter from Rolls-Royce chairman Peter Schwarzenbauer and chief executive Torsten Mueller-Oetvoes that it was in the process of developing its first-ever 4×4 car.

“Today we confirm that we are developing an all-new Rolls-Royce with exceptional presence, elegance and purpose … A car that offers the luxury of a Rolls-Royce in a vehicle that can cross any terrain,” the letter read.

The automaker added that the new model would be “a high-bodied car, with an all-new aluminium architecture”, but gave no indication of price or when production would begin.
